Holding that the relief "requested by the plaintiff ordering the state to release its interest in real property" is similar to the "retroactive" relief barred by the Eleventh Amendment under Edelman v. Jordan, 415 U.S. 651, 94 S.Ct. 1347, 39 L.Ed.2d 662, and not the "prospective" relief permitted by Quern v. Jordan, 440 U.S. 332, 99 S.Ct. 1139, 59 L.Ed.2d 358
